I recently went to play Platinum Arts Sandbox and encountered an error. Once I had finished my map, in RPG mode, I went to save it by using the save map command in the editing window and named my map: tutorial1. I tried to load the map by using the New Game command on the startup RPG screen and it said in the top corner: could not read map packages/base/tutorial1.ogz
I named my game tutorial and I am using a Windows 8 laptop that is 64 bit.

Re: Cannot load map
Hi I am going to try and replicate your issue, as I also have Windows 8 64 bit. As I'm not sure how long you took in making it I will just be in for 10 minutes. I will update as soon as I am done.

I checked in the folder base and the file tutorial1.ogz wasn't there.

Re: Cannot load map
how about in base/rpg. It should be saved there so to load it, the command should be map rpg/tutorial1

Re: Cannot load map
So there is only two possibility left, it's a bug or it just you who didn't save it properly. But it is always a really frustrating thing to lost something you had work on passionately.
